Football Book Reviews
I have read a fair few football books and amongst those have been some poor ones, which is to be expected really. However, there have been some good ones in there and have enjoyed reading the books of the games characters, particular players I've admired and also the managers themselves. Here is a small selection of my favourites:
Sir Bobby Charlton, it is his autobiography (which he does in two parts, one United and one England). It was a long awaited release. He goes back through his life, childhood, playing for United and speaks about modern day United and his love of a certain Paul Scholes in particular. It was such an incredible read and interesting to get a personal account of the man who seen it all in the brilliant and devastating times of Manchester United. The part about Munich is incredibly sad. Every United and indeed football fan would love this book. Bobby really does tell a great story and he is the very essence of the club itself. It is the way it is written too that makes this so strong, a real read unlike too many football books especially autobiographies.
